If a concern is reported not using the Report It form, whoever receives the report will notify university staff associated with following up on a specific report.
It depends on what the report is about, but generally, designated staff follow up on concerns that have been reported. After each report is received, it is reviewed by staff to determine which office or department is best to handle the concern and what action steps are necessary in the moment to ensure the concern is taken care of within an appropriate amount of time. For example, if a roommate concern is submitted, the concern would be addressed by professional staff in Residential Living and Learning. If there is an immediate concern for the mental health of a student, the Stetson University On-Call team will immediately begin working to make contact with and support the student whom the concern is about.
It all depends on what the report is about. More often than not, contact is made with the student, staff/faculty, or community member the report concerns and necessary follow up occurs. This often includes providing resources to the individual to help support them during their time at Stetson and/or addressing any behavior mentioned in the report that may be of concern.
